Louis Robert

L Alchimie De Limage 1882 (French Edition)

by Louis Robert

Publisher's Description

A truly wonderful exhibition catalogue of the work of Louis Robert, a French portraitist and photographic experimentalist whose work dates from the late 1840's to early 1860's. This show establishes Robert as one of the great, early chemists of photography, and features a side-by-side comparison of both his paper negatives and positive prints. Highly technical in its texts and altogether beautiful in its reproductions.
